Football: Barcelona send Crosas on loan to Lyon 12/01/2008 00:00
Marc Crosas out on loan to French first division side Lyon until the end of the season
MADRID, January 11, 2008 - Barcelona have sent midfielder Marc Crosas out
on loan to French first division side Lyon until the end of the season, the
Spanish club said Friday.
"It is nice that they have bet on me. I will try to have the maximum
opportunities. Playing regularly at a team like Barcelona would be very
difficult," the 20-year-old player told Barcelona's website.
"I am going to a good place, with good players. I will train with a group
of players with as high a level as I did at Barcelona," he added.
Crosas, a member of Barcelona's reserve team who joined the Catalan club in
2005, made three appearances for the club's first team this season.
After 18 matches Barcelona are second in the Spanish league table, seven
points adrift of Real.
